Description
Have you tried to sign up on Upwork, but they rejected you? Maybe you haven't tried because you're afraid you won't get in. Well, I can't guarantee you'll get approved even once you take this course. But what I can do is show you the exact steps I use to get profiles approved. It's not guaranteed, but it works really well and it hasn't failed me yet.
Over the past few years, Upwork made it super hard to get approved on their platform. They increased the requirements and updated their standards. They did this to keep bad freelancers out and filter good freelancers in. But sometimes Upwork's algorithms make mistakes and even good freelancers don't get approved.
To get approved on Upwork you have to prove you're the right kind of person. But how do you do that? What does Upwork even want from you? Don't guess, because if you get it wrong you'll get rejected like thousands of people do every single day. Instead, take this course before you apply and follow my guidance closely.
Inside this course is a step-by-step live recorded walkthrough so you get to see exactly what I write, how I structure it, and my entire strategy and approach to set up a brand new Upwork account that gets approved in seconds on the first try.
Here's what you'll get inside this course:
Learn why Upwork updated their standards and cracked down on applicants
Discover exactly what Upwork wants from you and your profile at sign up
Learn the strategy, approach and thought process I use to get new Upwork accounts approved
Get a step-by-step live recorded walkthrough as I set up a brand new Upwork account
Avoid instant-reject mistakes that cause your profile to get turned down again and again
If you struggle to get approved on Upwork, then this course is for you. If you're worried that you'll try to sign up and get turned away, then this course is for you.
Again, I can't guarantee my approach will get you approved. But I can show you it, and I can give you examples and resources to help you craft your own Upwork-friendly profile to give yourself the absolute best chance possible to get approved even if you've been rejected before.
If that's what you need, scroll up and enroll now!
See you on the inside!

Hi there, I'm Lex DeVille and you probably shouldn't join my courses. I'm a terrible role model despite holding a BA and an MA in Psychology. Plus, I play with the devil's tools - NLP, hypnotherapy, influence, persuasion, and knives. Yes, I practically cheated my way to a full-time freelance income multiple times, all of which were documented in detail, but hey, it's not like there was a "no skipping the line" sign hanging on Upwork's door.
The real reason you shouldn't join my courses is because I must suck at freelancing otherwise I wouldn't teach. I mean, yeah, my Upwork profile is ranked in the #1 search position across like 10 to 20 search terms worldwide right now, and yeah, I boosted my Upwork earnings from $20k+ to nearly $40k+ over the last month or so, and sure, my last client was an international celebrity and the client before that was paying $10k+ per month for copywriting services, and I've been invited to over 100 Upwork gigs in the past month which anyone can see by viewing my profile from a client account...
Okay, so I have over 200 pages of 5-star Udemy reviews, and over 10,000 freelance subscribers on YouTube, and sure, you probably aren't that familiar with the places I've been featured, like The Fastlane Forum, MilitarySpouse, NextGenMilSpouse, Ash Ambirge's Unf*ckwithable Girlfriends, Kyle Keegan Radio Show, The Joplin Globe, iNLP and others, but that's because I don't spend my time pitching Forbes, Huff Post, or Entrepreneur. I only show up when people invite me.
I mean, basically, all I've done was started multiple Upwork accounts from scratch and grew them into full-time incomes in a month, and then branched out into clients beyond Upwork, but that's practically nothing. I mean, yeah, there's the part where I've trained over 14,000 people, and a bunch of those people went on to earn full-time incomes as freelancers, and several reported breaching the six-figure mark, including some who only watched my free training videos...
But I digress, I'm moody, sinister, and don't play fair. I'm not a good guy and never claimed to be. I legally changed my name to Lex DeVille for a reason. Look, you can judge, you can hate, you can go green with envy, but what I teach gets results, and while it's possible you might uncover some of the same ideas if you scour the internet long enough, you can spend $10 with me and get a lot of good info laid out in one place in an easy to consume course and you can join a community of people who get results every single day.
But if you're the kind of person who thinks you deserve freelance clients just because you exist, well, you probably won't like my courses because I teach people to be valuable, help clients, and approach freelancing like entrepreneurs instead of employees. Most people don't like that because it's hard work and they want handouts. You won't find any handouts here. Instead, I tell you what has worked for me in the past and what is working for me now. It's up to you to put it to use, get results, and change your life. See you inside.
